Ingredients
- 4 pieces, 6 oz each salmon fillets
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 3, minced garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp, grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp, toasted (optional) sesame seeds
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until combined.
- Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets skin-side down on a large rimmed baking sheet. Arrange 3 cups broccoli florets around the salmon. Drizzle 2 tbsp olive oil evenly over the broccoli and toss gently to coat.
- Step 3: Brush the honey-soy glaze generously over the salmon fillets, reserving a small amount.
- Step 4: Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the broccoli edges are slightly charred and tender.
- Step 5: Remove from oven and brush the reserved glaze on the salmon for extra shine. Sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds over the broccoli and salmon before serving.
